Why I wouldn’t disagree with some of your points, the same guy that did OP’s install could have used gold plated titanium pipes and it still would have not worked properly with that workmanship. And TBH, one of best reason to use PVC instead of a metal like SS is because it can fail. The...

There is rated PVC for this exact type of venting. And while some tankless units have SS lined pipes, like Rinnai, they are generally double walled B vent type pipes that exhaust the combustion and intake the fresh via the same pipe. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’m not implying that you are uneducated in the subject, only that the costs to outfit those 2 type of retail outlets is vastly different. DD specs are flat out costly, from the various $10k combi ovens and $20 square tile work to proprietary POS and digital menu boards. An ace hardware store...

Renovating a 1200square foot DD and a 4K open space with VCT flooring, shelving, and lighting are vastly different jobs. Fit out costs from a vanilla box to retail reading store is about $100k, some of which is typically picked up by landlord. And yes, the majority of the upfront $300-$500 is...

They came thru the roof with the installed vent/intake pipes and missed the mark with the unit that probably was already installed and plumbed on the wall. They probably cocked the pipes to the right to “fit” into the exhaust/inlet ports and they slipped out. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I own restaurants and had one move in next door at one of our locations. This is the owners 2nd location. Spent some time talking to owners, they do well at both locations. They are strategically located in neighborhood centers, not regional shopping areas for a reason. Their business is based...

Ring cameras for the house and wired POE 4k camera system made by Qsee for a few retail stores. Depends on what you need, stand alone powered units or multiple camera wired systems. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Per the machine, I’m just going off what my installer mentioned. He’s done both, but stated a floor matching with a light pad (he did not specifically say what pad) produced a more even surface. The grit for traction can be custom blended per the customers preference in the top coat. As stated...

Just had a dura-flex polycrete floor 3 day installation finished today in a restaurant I own. I like what installer 2 is telling you. I just wouldn’t trust a 1 day install. The shot blasting is a must imo especially for the 1960’s section. Went with a broadcast flake, poly top coat for wear...

Epoxy starts to discolor at about 225 degrees. Ultimately went with a similar product, but more robust to wear vs epoxy. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Micro finish I believe Any thing is possible for diy with the right tools, but from what I learned, it’s a fairly intensive grind and polish procedure with a troweled in top coat. More polish and finish. Just got an estimate on this for a commercial kitchen. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Bucks County Pa. More detailed response tomorrow. Thanks again Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks all. I ruled our estate auctions due to past experiences with them. Between dealing with the bottom dollar mentality of many who come and the flat out policing of others to avoid theft, I don’t see the value in selling a few pieces at a time this way. The more I thought about this...

Long story short, soon to be 99 y/o, WWII vet, grandfather was recently moved to a rehab home. Myself, and my 80 year old father/mother, have been left to deal with the house. Small work shop filled with mostly vintage hand tools. Nothing extraordinary from what I saw, just a boat load of...

You don’t size the well pump to your irrigation needs, you zone the irrigation system to your well refresh rate and pump size. You could put a 30/gallon minute pump in there, but if the well only supplies 9 gal/minute, you’ll be clogging the system with mud. And while you can’t pull from that...
